Hi all,
I'm trying to integrate qlikview with our site and a custom SQL based authentication backend it uses. To this end I started with a simplest custom Authenticate.aspx with a hardcoded username and put it into %ProgramFiles%\QlikView\Server\QlikViewClients\QlikViewAjax\ directory, replacing the one that was already there. The contents of my Authenticate.aspx:
<%@ Import Namespace="System.IO" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="QlikView.AccessPoint" %>
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" Debug="true" %>
<script runat="server">
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
Response.Clear();
Context context = this.GetContext();
context.Response.AddVersionHeader();
File.AppendAllText("C:\\ProgramData\\QlikTech\\WebServer\\Log\\authenticate.log", "here");
IUser user;
user = new NamedUser("DOMAIN\\user", null, true);
QlikView.AccessPoint.User.GenericAuthentication(context, user);
return;
}
</script>
The problem is, I don't think it's being used, as even the `File.AppendAllText` line doesn't work, and I'm getting a CONNECTION_RESET error from Authenticate.aspx in the browser (seen in dev tools in network log) after which it pops up a message that I'm not authorized to view the document and in QVWS log I can see it's falling back to anonymous, which explains the not authorized message.
Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Or even ideas on how to debug this?
Don't know much about ASP.NET so this could be a newbie error.
BTW, I got the idea and code for this from `Customized Authentication v2 0.zip` attached to one of the threads here.
Thanks,
Michael
